Notes for: Margaret ("Maggie") F. Bodine

I am not sure she is the daughter of Daniel Budd Bodine, but that does appear to be the case. I had her middle initial as "L." but that must be incorrect.

When Daniel B. Bodine died, his obituary in the Daily State Gazette of Trenton, NJ stated that he left 3 surviving children. W. B. Bodine(my great grandfather), Joseph L. Bodine (well known physician and surgeon) and Anna F.

In that Bodine plot I found the graves of Daniel and his wife, his son Joseph L. and his wife, and those of Elizabeth S., Lizzie, Maggie and 2 others which were so old that I am not sure I could ever decipher them.

When I get the book I ordered which inventories the graves in Mercer Cemetery I will send you further information and when the weather is warmer I will go back down there and work at getting additional information from the gravestones.

Here is a picture of her tombstone at Mercer Cemetery in Trenton, New Jersey. It was sent to me by Sheila Bodine (norumba at aol.com):

The Mercer County Death Records note she died of typhoid fever.
